Among the agreeable curiosities of the
day is the Professor of Memory. He
fills a long felt want. He is the savior
of forgetfulness. the Regeneration of oh
Hvion. Unlike the mind reader, he deals
with the vacancy not the fulness of the
brain.
We have lived too long under the spell
of the poet who wrote
'''Ts pleasant To remember, love, tits better to
forget"
In the commercial, political and social
worlds, think of the obligations sighted,
the promises broken, the lives blighted
through lack of memory.
The western buyer hurries into one of
our great ernporiuns, pregnant with con-
sequence and a big order. He is met
with a, stony stare by the head of the
firm, who takes him for the tax collector.
Or, if heartily welcomed, called by
name, his order shipped and his promise
to pay accepted, he returns home and
forgets to- provide for his notes. In
either case the result of 'orgetfuiness is
chaos.
So in politics, the party or man that
breaks promises, takes the shortest cut
to ruin and CblOquy. What turned the
Republican rascals out but their failure
to redeem the pledge to reform, to econ
omize, To advance labor. to- reduce the
taxes! \ bad memory cost Charles |.
his head. And the gallant Mike Cregan
Is at present embarrassed because he
failed to remember thu, exact terms of
his compact with the chivalrous Allen
Thorndike Rice.
But it is in society that cultivated
memory is more valuable than "A Grecian
nose or am auburn mustache. The dudes
who have been handed down to shame
and cheap restaurants because they for
got dinner engagements, are without
number. The lovers who forgot their
best girls birthdays. are inconsolable in
groups. The ''old chappies" who over
looked their clubs and t;iilors' bills, orna-
ment many a western ranch. The hostess
who calls people out of their names Is
the laughing stock of the town, and the
girl who quotes Tennyson when she
means Shakespeare, is common by
word.
Surely the Professor of Memory has a
large field To work in, and don't you for
get it.
